Our Verdict
A strong recommendation for buyers seeki
Given the very low mileage recorded at the first MOT, buyers should verify the service history to ensure that time-based maintenance intervals were met, even if mileage intervals were not. Check for evidence of the car being used primarily for short urban trips, which can impact engine oil longevity.
While the MOT record is clean, you should negotiate based on the age of the tyres. Vehicles with extremely low mileage can experience rubber degradation or 'flat-spotting' despite having plenty of tread remaining. Ensure all manufacturer-recommended fluids have been topped up according to the schedule.
The 2.0L engine in the Cooper S provides significant performance but will result in higher fuel consumption and insurance premiums compared to the standard Cooper. As a Euro 6 AP vehicle, it is compliant with the strictest UK emissions zones, meaning no daily charges in ULEZ or similar Clean Air Zones.
Typical maintenance for this model involves premium fuel and performance tyres, which are more expensive to replace than standard variants. Expect annual costs to be higher than a non-S MINI due to the engine size and insurance group.
Although the October 2025 MOT recorded no defects, you should specifically inspect the tyres and windscreen wipers, as these are the most frequent failure points for this model based on aggregate data. Check the brake discs for any surface corrosion, which is common in vehicles that spend long periods stationary.
Verify the operation of the headlamps and all external lighting, as these are also noted as common failure points across the wider Cooper S population. A physical inspection of the blue paintwork for any stone chips or parking scuffs is advised to complement the clean mechanical record.
This Blue 2022 MINI Cooper S (LB72UBR) is a low-mileage example featuring a 1998cc Euro 6 AP petrol engine. At its first MOT in October 2025, the vehicle had covered only 3,095 miles and passed with no defects recorded. It represents a high-specification, low-use option within the Cooper S range.
The MINI Cooper S shows a solid reliability profile with an average MOT pass rate of 88% across nearly 100,000 analysed vehicles.
